This blacklist affects deliverability at a subset of mail servers. Still worth resolving.
About Spam Eating Monkey Backscatter
Spam Eating Monkey's backscatter zone specifically lists mail servers that generate backscatter — bounce messages and delivery failure notifications sent to forged sender addresses in spam.
Why am I listed?
Mail servers are listed when they generate backscatter by sending non-delivery reports, challenge-response messages, or other automated replies to addresses that did not originate the triggering email.
